Woman in Thailand found alive in coffin

'Everyone was startled': Watch woman found alive in coffin moments before cremation

'I saw her opening her eyes slightly and knocking on the side of the coffin. She must have been knocking for quite some time'

I always will remember my Mother saying "Make sure I'm dead when I' dead."

In a shocking case of "I'm not dead yet," a woman was found alive in a coffin just moments before she was set to be cremated.

The incident took place in Thailand as Tham, a Buddhist temple in the Nonthaburi province on the outskirts of Bangkok, posted a video on its Facebook page, "revealing a woman lying in a white coffin in the back of a pickup truck, slightly moving her arms and head, leaving temple staff bewildered," according to the Associated Press.

The 65-year-old woman's brother drove her from the province of Phitsanulok to be cremated, the temple's general and financial affairs manager Pairat Soodthoop told AP.

And that's when they heard a faint knock coming from the burial box. "I was a bit surprised, so I asked them to open the coffin, and everyone was startled," Pairat said.

"I saw her opening her eyes slightly and knocking on the side of the coffin. She must have been knocking for quite some time."
